Main contributions:

DAS and DAS networking (June 2022 -> ongoing)

• Exploration through simulation, builder to validator networking: https://github.com/codex-storage/das-research
  Related presentation at EthereumZurich https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-xkP4FzYMQ
• DAS DHT to nodes (just started work on large scale simulations based on Kim’s code, WIP branch, to be finilized and cleaned up):
  • https://github.com/codex-storage/nim-libp2p-dht/tree/test-many
  • WIP: Test DHT with large number of nodes codex-storage/nim-codex-dht#57
• Other simulation resources prepared for DAS studies: https://github.com/cskiraly/oversim-meta

Note: Csaba was working on libp2p and gossipsub before, but afaik, libp2p is out of scope for PG. Still listing for completion, as it may affect start date:

Gossipsub: (May 2022 -> ongoing)

• contributions to Gossipsub protocol improvements: mostly in private discussions, but one example is Gossipsub extension for Epidemic Meshes (v1.2.0) libp2p/specs#413

Libp2p metrics: (Dec 2021 -> Mar 2022)

• extra metrics for nim-libp2p to understand gossipsub duplicates and protocol dynamics in real-world deployments expose more libp2p performance and queuing metrics vacp2p/nim-libp2p#678

Amazing work!

I've worked with Csaba on DAS and can attest to his protocol work!

sorry for the delay in getting to this. just so it's clear - what would the proposed start date / weight be?
